Decent Typesetting

Excellent service at sensible prices

Our clients enjoy working with an innovative, forward-thinking supplier who can be relied on to do a thorough job every time. We take great pride in our work, knowing that our clients will only return if they receive excellent service and outstanding results.

 

Our rates are very reasonable, too: we usually quote a fixed price for initial typesetting with any additions or amendments charged at an hourly rate.

 

Here we have shown just a few examples of work that we — or our automated system SetFast© — have worked on recently.

Reader's Digest Condensed Books

We are proud to include Reader's Digest among our portfolio of clients, following our work on their Condensed Books range. We were faced with the task of electronically copyfitting book text to a precise page extent, following very tight typographic and stylistic constraints to maximise readability while keep the book length to an economic minimum.

This procedure had previously been carried out using copy-editors to add and remove words and phrases; Decent Typesetting achieved the aim with no editorial intervention at all.

Cred: SetFast© sets the pace

A London publisher came to us for advice on how best to produce a complex Who's Who-style industry guide to the UK credit industry, which gives full details of the roles and responsibilities of over 4000 contacts and 300 companies.

Using the 'magic' of SetFast© we developed a simple pagination system that produced the directory in just a few hours, saving several days.

We later extended the system automatically to build and typeset a full index section listing all the companies and contacts.

We used our automated SetFast© system to customise a simple leaflet, aimed at new volunteers, for 204 different branches.

We also recommended and arranged an easy, cost-effective on-demand printing service.

And so much more...

We have nowhere near enough room to show the many hundreds of examples of our work. Chances are, though, that we've worked on a similar project to yours before.
